Innovative, invitation-only, C-level event

Solutions Summit, the must-attend C-level event of the year for the channel is invitation-only and combines a series of general session presentations, one-on-one meetings, case studies presented in a boardroom format, and networking opportunities focused on next generation office document strategies, services and technologies.

The Summit pairs C-level executives and owners of office product dealerships with leading technology vendors, software providers, supplies vendors and wholesalers to discuss opportunities and strategies that will help build solutions and professional services, and the future growth and direction of the industry.

Win-win "hosted" model

For buyers who are extremely busy, this is a very efficient platform to meet new suppliers, see new products, and accomplish objectives in a focused time frame. Because both the buyer and seller are qualified prior to the event, meeting schedules are prearranged providing an extremely efficient way of conducting business onsite. Sellers benefit by knowing they will have guaranteed appointments with buyers, resulting in a much higher ROI. Space is limited so click here if you're interested in attending.
